One of the quilts I have done is Millies Fancy. It was made by the lovely Jody.

Jody is the owner of All About Sewing and my friend. We have worked together for 8 years. When Jody first asked me to quilt this huge quilt for her I was a bit scared but I knew I wanted it to be special.

I hung it over my frame for two days to get my head around it. Nothing came to me. I loaded it up hoping for something to come to me. Nope, still nothing ...

Then I was marking with a template trying out some designs and flipped the template and BAM! there was the design. I quickly drew it up and got started.

As the quilting evolved I got very excited. It was beautiful .....

Here are some pics I took when I finished. I don't have a full one of the whole quilt yet but you'll get the idea.

I'm happy to say that Jody loves her quilt and because it was done in a class a couple of other ladies want their quilts quilted the same..... I look forward to doing them later in the year....
